Chapter 62: I’m sorry, I’m busy.
Chapter 62
"Xiner, tell Mom, what happened? No matter what it is, Mom won't blame you."
Chen Xiaohui gently held her daughter's hand and gave her an encouraging look.
An Xin shook her head, tears swirling in her eyes. She couldn't tell her mother!
Chen Xiaohui wanted to ask if her daughter had someone she liked, but she was afraid of upsetting her, so she swallowed the words that were about to come out.
Just then, Wang Junfeng walked in.
An Xin saw Wang Junfeng and a look of fear filled her eyes. Her body trembled uncontrollably. She instinctively wanted to hide, but she was lying in bed with a cast on her foot and couldn't move.
Li Man greeted Wang Junfeng and happened to see An Xin looking at him in panic.
Li Man furrowed her brows slightly and followed An Xin's gaze to Wang Junfeng. She noticed that Wang Junfeng was also looking at An Xin, and even when Chen Xiaohui spoke to him, he seemed absent-minded.
Li Man looked at An Xin again and saw that she had closed her eyes.
"Have you eaten? Why don't you go home and rest? I'll take care of her here," Wang Junfeng asked with concern.
Chen Xiaohui turned to look at her daughter and found that An Xin had fallen asleep again. She sighed helplessly and whispered, "An Xin is fine, don't worry. Go back and rest."
Wang Junfeng glanced at the food box on the bedside table and asked, "Have you eaten?"
"We have, you should go and have your meal."
"Okay then, I'll go back first. I'll come back later to relieve you," Wang Junfeng said.
An Xin's heart tightened when she heard this, afraid that her mother would agree.
Fortunately, Chen Xiaohui refused, "No need, you still have to work. I can take care of An Xin here. There's a place for me to sleep, don't worry."
Wang Junfeng looked tenderly at them, "I can't rest assured if you two are here alone. I'll come and accompany you tonight."
He was worried about An Xin, afraid that she might say something inappropriate.
Chen Xiaohui felt warm in her heart, feeling that she had married a good husband, but she still refused, "Really, there's no need. You should go and have your meal."
Seeing that Li Man was present, Wang Junfeng didn't say much. He asked about An Xin a few more times before leaving.
As soon as Wang Junfeng left, An Xin opened her eyes.
Li Man furrowed her brows slightly. An Xin seemed to be particularly afraid of Wang Junfeng and disgusted by him. She saw the unhidden disgust in An Xin's eyes when she looked at Wang Junfeng.
Just as Li Man was shocked by her discovery, her phone suddenly rang.
She picked it up and saw that it was Huang Dehan calling.
Huang Dehan rarely called her. What could be the matter?
Li Man answered the phone with a puzzled tone, "Hello, where are you?" came Huang Dehan's rough voice from the other end of the line.
Suppressing her discomfort, Li Man replied unkindly, "I'm at the hospital, keeping a friend company. What's the matter with your call?"
"I rushed out today and left the documents at home. Can you help me go back and get them, and then deliver them to..."
"I'm sorry, I don't have time!" Li Man interrupted Huang De Han before he could finish, refusing.
Huang De Han felt frustrated on the other end of the phone, but instead of scolding, he softened his tone. "Please, I really have an urgent matter. Can you help me retrieve them?"
